I had just assumed () that wouldn't be the right Hannah, so didn't pursue it!

I expect this is her second husband's death, though he has aged 2 years in a few months:

DAVIS, SAMUEL
72
GRO Reference: 1861 S Quarter in WEST HAM UNION Volume 04A Page 27

There's a probate entry for Hannah:

I now wonder if this is Hannah in 1861? Was she the eldest of her siblings (I noted she was first listed in her mother's will)? I can't find a different death for this Hannah to exclude her (though I have to say I haven't tried very hard!):

Obviously the born Coventry is perhaps unexpected, but maybe that's where her parents started out, and moved to the London area after her birth but before the sisters I've looked at so far (Charlotte and Sophia) were born.

Is this the same Hannah in 1851? she younger than she should be, but her husband has the right forename!
